10/10 Excellent
"Friendly and welcoming staff. I was glad to hear that the pool and spa were open until midnight and that's adults only after 10pm. Breakfast in the morning was complete with eggs, bacon, potatoes, toast and bagels and fresh waffles, with apple or blueberry compote to top with. I was very pleased with my hotel stay and will definitely be back!"

Hampton Inn & Suites Houghton

Hampton Inn & Suites Houghton

10/10 Excellent
"Low ceilings in hotel bathrooms present a serious safety hazard when fire sprinklers are left exposed. Because space is tight, standard activities like drying off with a towel or reaching overhead can easily bump the heat-sensitive glass bulb or deflector. ​Accidentally breaking a sprinkler head triggers an immediate deluge of water and sets off the building's fire alarm. This causes severe room flooding, property damage, and unnecessary disruption for the entire hotel. ​While building codes vary by location, installing inexpensive metal wire guards over low-clearance sprinkler heads is a simple, proactive fix. Hotel management should add protective cages to all low-ceiling bathroom sprinklers to prevent accidental activation and costly water damage."
